- TECH CORNER - CHEATER BEWARE DR. DRONE, THE MEDICINE MACHINE In the Chinese region of Luoyang, teachers have resorted to using drones to monitor student exams. Engineered to detect radio waves from earpieces, which students use over there to cheat, it targets the culprit and alerts the operator, all while hovering safely above the class.

Residents are so enamored at the idea, 600 of them have already signed up.
